Greatest Draft Ever

I got this idea from an article on ESPN (not Simmons Had, don't worry).

In 20 years, which draft will be considered the greatest ever? The article narrowed it down to three: 1984, 1996 or 2003.

1984:

#1 pick: Hakeem "The Dream" Olajuwon



#3 pick: Michael Jordan



#5 pick: Charles Barkley



#16 pick: John Stockton




1996:

#1 pick: Allen Iverson



#5 pick: Ray Allen



#13 Kobe Bryant



#15 Steve Nash



#33 Moochie Norris




2003:

#1 pick: Lebron James



#3 pick: Carmelo Anthony



#4 pick: Chris Bosh



#5 pick: Dwyane Wade




For the record, my vote is 2003.
